Living life one day at a time…

I saw my first robin of the season today!! Always an exciting event. I can’t truly consider it to be spring without seeing a robin 🙂

Nothing too much going on today except that we went to the annual home show. It was CROWDED. Hint: We don’t like crowds. But we made our way through. Another not so nice thing…why do they feel the need to charge for parking and an entrance fee when the vendors are paying rent and possibly getting our business?? Seems greedy-like. Story of America. At least we got free parking and $3 off of our tickets each with some coupons. We knew what we wanted this year so we weren’t as googly-eyed over all the different vendors. We got some information on windows, sheds, landscaping, and heating. Met some nice people who didn’t push things on you, and also some who did. HATE THAT. We were there for a couple of hours and were glad to go and return to our serene retreat at home.

Our MAIN goal this year is to get new windows for the upstairs (8 in total). You really have to prioritize when you don’t want to put stuff on credit cards. I can TOTALLY see how people can go into debt making their house pretty.
